very serious

i don't know where to begin. im feeling a ton of pressure right now. my mom has an aorta aneurysm. from my understanding an aneurysm is very serious when it becomes greater than 5cm.

my fiancee spoke with my mom today, my fiancee is telling me that my moms aneurysm is 10.1cm that's more than double the size of what is considered dangerous.

i'm wondering if 10.1 even possible, i'm hoping there was some kind of mistake. if the aneurysm is 10.1 shouldn't the doctors be operating on her like right now? she has an appointment scheduled for next week...im just wondering if anyone has experienced this kind of situation. i know this is very dangerous. i'm very worried right now.

I doubt there is anyone who is a doctor on this forum, so you won't be getting much help here, perhaps trying a medical forum would give you better answers. Or just use Google, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aneurysm

I hope all the best for her but NEVER NEVER ask for help for health issues not only in this forum but at ANY forum.
Speak and get only opinions from her doctors. They know better that anyone.
Again all the best for your mom

Sorry to hear about this though.

I live just outside the city...She has an appointment in 7 days with the surgeon. I'm hoping for surgery asap. For now they've given her some meds. I bought her some aloe vera pills in hopes of improving her blood flow.
